The Hawley retainer must be worn nightly for life, so your healthy smile is maintained for as long as possible. It can be used after treatment with braces . The retainer is molded to your mouth to fit comfortably on the roof of your mouth, with the wire settled against the front of your top teeth. There are two wire parts in the back of the retainer for added stability. This is a removable type of retainer, also known as a wire retainer and an affordable option for keeping your teeth in their optimal position.
